Okay, the two of you are moving the stone. What is everyone else doing while they do this?

Renya continues to keep a close watch on proceedings from her elevated vantage point.
[sblock=OOC]Apologies for the delay and short post. Only got today to catch up with threads then am out again til Monday. I guess Renya isn't in the heart of the action ATM anyway so will maintain a watching brief.[/sblock]

As his two companions start playing around with the stone. Angus becomes even more vigilant. His personally theory is that the Sarcophagi lids are going to fly off and undead start to climb out. Of course this could just be Angus being paranoid, so he does not mention anything about this to the others. He just shouts back up to the scholar "Its OK. We're still checking things out down here."

The stone in the center of the floor is turned, then stops its movement suddenly. Those watching note that it stops with the corners aligned to the corners of the room. As soon as it does, the stone starts pushing up! Some kind of mechanism pushed the stone up on a round stone pillar, until the middle of the room is filled by it, leaving only a five-foot bredth between the stone and the sarcophagi.
There is a design on the cylinder, an illustration of an archway with some kind of spiky symbol in the center. In the middle of the spiky object is a key hole.
At this moment the stones in the back of the recesses shudder. Stepping out of them as if they were ghosts are armored figures wielding massive two-handed scimitars as easily as if they were twigs. Each of them is a skeleton, though their still-present eyes are filled with intensity you wouldn't expect from mindless undead. They have golden crowns on their heads, and around their necks are amulets.
If the room was a wheel, they would be on the outside ring. The sarcophagi block any back-and-forth movement from them to the middle area (where the three who were moving the stone were standing).
Sindri/Keepiru/anyone who looked at the pillar in the pool upstairs: please roll Int check.
Anyone at the bottom of the steps, near the skeletons (ie: not Renya): roll a perception check.

Sindri's hands lose purchase as the stone suddenly stops its turning and he stumbles. He scuttles back from the rising stone with a loud cackle. "Ha, ha! It worked! I told..." He breaks off abruptly as he notices the heavily armed skeletal figures. "Crone take me for a cuddle-toy!"
Jack, standing at the bottom of the stair while others examine the new room, tenses as he hears Sindri curse.
[sblock=OOC]INT check for Sindri 1d20=14
Perception for Jack 1d20+9=23[/sblock]

Grinning triumphantly at the stone as it moves upward, Keepiru at first does not recognize the danger. As the entities flow out of the stone around the perimeter he cries out in surprise. He puts his back to the stone in the center of the room out of reflex but soon realizes it is no protection against these beings.
OOC: Int check (1d20+1=11)
